What's with all these very high ratings for heavier models? Some of these new girls with crazy ratings can't hold a candle to the slim, sexy women on the site and yet they have the highest ratings I've seen. I just don't get it.

@dcooper0041 you must bear in mind, personal preferances are such a wonderful thing.
Totem provide a wide variation of models to try to suit most tastes and the ratings are only provided by those that vote

I also noticed lately that many cards that were rated under 4.6 or so are now over 4.75 and I'm not talking about recent cards. For example, Kristy Black/Unpredictable jumps from 4.47 to 4.74, Taylor Sands/Hoedown 4.54 to 4.77, Vicky Love/The Right Moves 4.47 to 4.72 and lots of others.

I didn't see any "heavier" models on this site for ages. In fact I would like to see some.

The ratings were bugged for a long time, now they are fixed, that's what I've read here.

@muttonjeff Yeah she's great 😍

So they say, but I'm a bit sceptical... 😕

As there have been quite a few posts here by people reporting that when they submitted a rating of one value it would show up as being recorded as half that value then I can easily believe that fixing the problem would adjust the overall ratings upwards.

Ok, but let's say there have been quite a boost upwards. If you notice, now only 65 out of 5775 cards have a rating lower than 4.00...
So no surprise if to some this might look a little strange.

It can look strange, but that is no reason to suspect that the explanation was incorrect.

The ratings were always "strange" in that they were highly clustered about the high end. Given that distribution then if a significant number of ratings had been incorrectly only be recorded at half their proper value then I would expect that the biggest corrections would be seen in the lowest rated cards - that's the way the mathematics works.

This must have been changed just a little while ago. Now this really makes the ratings absolutely nonsense. Almost all cards between 4 and 5. I guess the adjusted the system to disregard 0 and 1 ratings, maybe 2 as well.

If that was the case then it should be visible as a decrease in the totalnumber of ratings for each card. Not having any access to the old totals I do not know if that has happened or not - but personally I doubt it.

I would guess that people who don't buy a card, don't rate that card.

if there were a model with three arms and some guy really likes women with three arms, he is going to rate her very high. And few others would buy the card, and then rate the card.

As for the old ratings: If someone had a spread sheet with the old information then it might include the old scores. I don't do this, but maybe someone with data could share the "old" and "new" data. Then, you can compare.

You can only rate a purchased card.
If I see a card in the preview that would be a 1 or 2 for me, I don't buy it.

I also have a poorly rated card because for me it is worth a 4 or 5.
For example, I think Shabba/Happy ship from 2009 had a very low rating (I think it was just 2 then and now 3.81). While I think this was and still is a very good card. I even put that in the comments once (Why a low average rating. I love her)

I also hardly ever rate cards, unless the model really has to give me a WOW feeling, because my taste changes over time and you cannot adjust the rating (?). Maybe you rate a card as a 5 immediately after release. But after a month you think I would give it a little less now.

And how do you want to rate the cards? With 5 cards you give 1 to 5. But with 3000 cards and you only buy what you like in the preview, then the most is 3 to 5. Or do you have to give 600 cards a 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and are willing and able to adapt this permanently.
